To
Be a European Muslim To be a European Muslim addresses some of the fundamental issues born of the several million strong Muslim presence in Europe in our times. Based on a thorough study of Islamic sources, it seeks to answer basic questions about European Musims social, political, cultural and legal integration. The study shows that it is possible to lead life as a practising Muslim while living together in multi-faith, pluralistic European nation states. One of the leading Islamic thinker among Europe's second- and third-generation Muslim immigrants, the Geneva-based university lecturer . Ramadan, is the grandson of Hassan al-Banna, founder, in 1928, of the Ikhwan-e-Muslimeen "Muslim Brotherhood", an Islamic revival movement that spread from Egypt throughout the Arab world, criticizing Western decadence and advocating a return to Muslim values. Yet Ramadan says, "I'm a European who has grown up here. I don't deny my Muslim roots, but I don't vilify Europe either." |
